Thanir gods

The Thanir also known as the Northern Gods are a tribe of gods led by the Raven King. Their main sphere of influence is in Ailangarde and by extent the Nine Realms, but once held the northern parts of the Continent under their sway.

Ancient Times
Originally founded by the Raven King after the death of Jörumm and the emergence of the Drómani, the Thanir have since had a hold on the Nine Realms.

The First Men
It is said that the Tidemother guided the first humans to Ailangarde's shores with a great storming song. Those humans would become the Ailanir and forever intertwined with the Thanir gods.

During this time the Raven King also married the Raven Queen, previously the Queen of the Damned, and created the Halls of Valor, a place where valkyries would carry the souls of dead warriors to be reborn anew.

The Shattering
The Thanir played a massive part in the Shattering, acting as the opposing side of the Drómani. Kórd was the greatest weapon of the Thanir in this time with his mighty hammer. It is said that he felled not hundreds, but thousands of giantkin during this time.

In Recent Years
The Thanir, on the orders of the Raven King, have been hunting the remaining Drómani of Ailangarde, and have been searching for the hidden gateway to their home realm, in the hope that they can stop the battle at the end of the world from coming to pass.
